Pros

Guaranteed position if you stay there and don't make waves.

Cons

Difficult to get through all the red tape, especially with the Italians. At one point I had to hand deliver 5,000 pages of a 'Progetto' to get it signed by the COO so I could start my £1.5M project. This was a project that we had a contract for with the customer. In the end it was almost impossible to deliver the project when the organisation got in the way at every stage.

Pros

There is not one pro I can think of.

Cons

The culture is extremely toxic and divisive. There is a clear preference shown toward Italian employees over U.S. employees, which creates an unfair and frustrating work environment. Communication is often unprofessional, with frequent yelling, finger-pointing, and disrespectful comments. Management has failed to establish clear roles and responsibilities, leading to constant confusion and conflict between employees. Engineering leadership appears heavily driven by favoritism and routinely treats employees with a lack of professionalism and respect.
